Quick and Easy Italian Pasta Salad

We have a new favorite around my house. It's Italian Pasta Salad using Olive Garden Italian Dressing. It makes the perfect pasta salad. It's a super quick and easy side dish. You can also add Italian seasoned chicken to the pasta for a quick meal. My son has been known to finish the entire bowl on several occasions!

Ingredients:

1 package spiral or bowtie pasta

1/2 bottle of Olive Garden Italian Dressing

1/2 package Italian Five Cheese

Pimentos & Olives

Boil the pasta according to the directions on the package. Drain and allow the noodles to cool. I add a small amount of dressing while they are cooling to prevent the noodles from sticking together. Once cooled, add half of the bottle of dressing, cheese, olives and pimentos.

Allow to chill several hours before serving.

Tossing in some precooked and Italian seasoned chicken adds a great twist to the pasta.

If you are looking for a fast, simple and yummy side dish, this one is it! We love the Olive Garden dressing, but if you can't find that you can always use a different brand. The Olive Garden dressing is so delicious, and makes the perfect Italian pasta.

This sounds yummy. I make something similar. I did not know that there was an Olive Garden Italian dressing. Will be looking for it at the grocers. I think some artichoke would be yummy too. Thanks for sharing with SYC.hugs,Jann
